My setup is ViolentMonkey on Chromium and Firefox. Volunteers are encouraged to bugtest on alternative platforms.

Issues

TamperMonkey 5.1.0, Chrome Canary 124

Something about TM and Chrome Canary is not compatible and may cause issue. Three solution to this:

1. Go to TM settings, change from Novice to Advanced, scroll down all the way to Experimental and switch Inject mode to Instant
2. Go to Chrome Experiments, enable Enable (deprecated) synchronous mutation events and restart Chrome.
3. Reinstall Chrome completely, removing previous browsing data

[BUG] Stopped working in Canary

Describe the bug

This script worked fine in Chrome Canary up until yesterday, but today it no longer shows the buttons when I go to https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=WL and Refresh as usual (the Refresh was always required to show the buttons, in my experience).

It still works in Chrome Version 122.0.6261.129 (Official Build) (arm64) with Tampermonkey 5.0.1

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install Canary (Version 124.0.6367.0 (Official Build) canary (arm64)
2. Go to https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=WL
3. Reload the page
4. No buttons appear

Platform (please complete the following information):

• Scriptrunner: Tampermonkey 5.1.0 (note the version difference from Chrome; 5.0.1 vs 5.1.0)
• Script version 3.0.1

Yes, I have Developer Mode enabled in Canary.

A modified version with channel sorting

I hope this is useful and you see something you like to enhance your script. I don't intend to maintain my own :)

[BUG] Stopped sorting

To Reproduce

Click sort

Platform (please complete the following information):

  -- Version 125.0.2
• Scriptrunner ViolentMonkey
• Scriptrunner version 2.18.0

Manual refresh needed to run script when Watch List is opened via YouTube ☰ Menu

Platform: Windows 11 x64
Browser: Brave Browser [Version 1.66.118 Chromium: 125.0.6422.147]
Extension: Tampermonkey 5.2

When I open the YT Watch List page by opening YouTube dot com, then clicking on Watch List in the ☰ Menu, the script doesn't run. It only runs after a manual page reload. This doesn't happen though if I go directly to the Watch List URL without opening YouTube dot com. I know that this has something to do with "fake navigation," backed up by the following warning I got when I tested the script on Violentmonkey:

I don't mind the reload to run the script, but I was just curious if there is a technical solution to this issue? Thanks for the great script!
